Location: Stones throw away...finally!!		I noticed a cut in my water line that goes to my water pressure guage the other day and was wondering gif you can splice a piece in, or patch that tube. It is similar to the line that you would put to your fridge for the ice maker. The placement of the cut is about 2-3 inches from the block. I suppose I could run the entire length again, but not too excited about fishing it through the fiberglass. Any help would be great.

Location: Elk River, Minnesota		Hiya,

I would bet you could go to the local hardware store and get an end to end joint with both ends being hose barbs. If anything, you could run a new line from the block to just outside of the engine, then use the double barbed joint with a couple of plastic tie straps to secure it.

That would be about it. So long as the seal is tight (which with the barbed ends and bar-ties, shouldn't be any issue)

Quick and easy fix...
